does anyone else feel the same way?
when i rate i usually go easy on people but other people ask these questions and i dont know why my advice did not get a higher rating. people should really comment on the advice so people can improve or else what is the point? and that people have spent time on their response without knowing why you rejected them when it might have been their fault for not making it clear what they were asking or providing details so we can answer better.

Maybe give some free advice about: Advicenators?
No need to go easy on people. If you rate
everyone 5's for example, and they gave a
crappy answer, it doesn't encourage them to
try and better themselves.
They don't know who you are, so no need to think
they will get mad at you or anything. :)
If everyone did it right, they would leave feedback saying what they didn't like about
the answer you gave. Then you would have a better chance at getting a higher rating the next time. You are so right about that!
It is also nice to tell those that gave you an
excellent answer why you liked it. Those who go
to a lot of trouble for someone should be rewarded
for the time they spent on you!
And nothing upsets me more as when people do like you said and leave a low rating with feedback
saying "I already tried that and it didn't work."
Well, swear word, why didn't they add that? They
at least shouldn't rate down because of it.
I can give you a tip. Capitalize the first words of your sentences and those I's. If you do, you
will get nice ratings and feedback. People will
take you advice seriously. :)

This isn't really a question, but I'll answer anyway.
Going easy on people while rating is not a good thing. 5's are supposed to be reserved for amazing answers- upper-level mods have said that 5's should be very rare. An honest rating will help the columnist a lot more.
Sometimes people don't have time to comment, and unless you got a 1, they're not "rejecting" you. 2's are for well-meant but useless, 3's for okay advice, 4's for good advice. I don't really see what you're asking, this kind of seems like you're just venting but remember ratings do not matter. At all.

This isn't actually a question. It's more like a discussion topic.

I totally agree with you. Someone asked a question on hear saying " Do eyelashes grow back ? " I gave a simple answer saying " Yes. " (S)he didn't ask for details, I answered the question plain and simple and they gave me a 2, and no feedback why. I don't get it. Some people rate too tough and don't leave reasons to improve!

I've actually had this happen to me a couple of times actually. I've done tons of research and left loads of information on the specific subject only to get a low rating with the person saying I had not provided the information they were looking for. I'm not all too bothered about the rating but it can get frustrating when I did all the research for someone to help them and in the end it was pointless because they didn't actually provide the correct details to start with or specify exactly what it was they were after. It happens but don't take it to heart is all the comfort I can give really. I'd be willing to bet this may have happen to a lot of people on here who give advice. Another thing that gets confusing is when you give information on something and give them the answer but they STILL rate you low becuase you didn't tell them what they wanted to know. :/ That one's always puzzled me because I then look back and think there is absolutely nothing I could add more to it other than random words here and there to make it look like I've written more. People can be puzzling. :] As I said though, don't take it to heart. :]
